Next Level Discernment Contra The System's "Learning to Live With" Tactic

1/11/2022

Earlier this week I argued that people should not get overly excited about recent System communications concerning the easing of or possible end to the birdemic and birdemic restrictions.

In that post, I noted that the Establishment has no plans to willingly relinquish the closed world system it has enforced upon the world since its successful 2020 global totalitarian coup. A recent article from the Off Guardian site echoes my suspicions (code and bold added):

So, “living with the birdemic” is going to be added to the birdemic phrasebook alongside “flatten the curve” and “the new normal”. But what does it actually entail?


When they say “living with the birdemic”, what do they really mean?

Well, firstly, let’s not make the mistake of trusting any government, media, or “expert”, just because they start telling 20% of the truth.

They are liars, they have an agenda, this is always true, you should always be aware of it, even when – or especially when – they are suddenly telling you what you want to hear.

They have not seen the light, they are not correcting their mistakes, they not finally seeing sense, and they are not switching sides.

There have been no Damascene conversions. There is no wave of guilty consciences sweeping through the elite.

They have an agenda. They always have an agenda.

You should also dispel all notions of “getting back to normal” from your mind. That isn’t happening.

How do we know? Because they said so.

That's spot on, that is. So, if the Establishment plans to keep the closed world intact, then what's behind the recent spate of conciliatory System communications? The Off Guardian article offers the following (code and bold added):

It could be that there are splits and factions, fractures along the floors of the corridors of power. Perhaps some members of the great big club want to halt the birdemic where it is, afraid that any more progress along the “Great Reset” path may imperil their own position or their own wealth.

Maybe.

What I see as more likely is that they sense they have over-extended themselves already, and that stretching further could break their entire story to pieces.

To use an apt metaphor, imagine the “Great Reset” agenda as an invading army, marching through town after town, winning battle after battle and burning as they go.

There comes a point where you have to stop. Your supply lines are pulled taut, your men are tired and numbers dwindling, and the occupied citizens are putting up more and more resistance. Push on now, and your entire campaign could crumble.

What you do in that situation is withdraw to a defensible position and fortify it. You don’t give back the land you’ve taken, or not much of it at least, but you stop pushing forward.

The people whose land you have invaded will be so glad the war is over, so tired of fighting, they’ll be so relieved by the respite before realising how much of their land you’ve taken away. They may even say “let them keep it, as long as they stop attacking us”.

That’s how conquest works, from the days of ancient Rome and beyond. A cycle of aggression followed by fortification.

When we switch from “birdemic” to “mini-birdemic”, we won’t be getting our rights back, the peck passes and surveillance and the culture of paranoia and fear will remain, but people will be so relieved at the pause in the campaign of fear and propaganda they will stop resisting.

They won’t push back, and the “New Normal” will literally become just that, normal.
​

Hell, they’ll probably greenlight funding for anything Bill Gates wants to do make sure “the birdemic is the last birdemic”.

And then, one day when people are nice and docile again, a new variant will come back, or we’ll need a “climate lockdown”, and the push for control of every aspect of our lives will start up again in earnest.

The best thing we can do is not fall into the trap.

Once again, that's probably accurate. In fact, these notions parallel my own observations about how evil chooses to advance in the world:

Firstly, despite appearances to the contrary, evil is simply not powerful enough to ceaselessly crush everything in its path like a steamroller. It can certainly utilize blitzkrieg tactics once in a while to surprise its opponents and occupy large swathes of territory like an invading army, but the initial gains these kinds of attacks yield are quickly tempered by the logistical reality of having to occupy and subdue the conquered territory. As military history has demonstrated countless times, this is no easy task. Lighting war assaults can stretch supply lines and leave behind determined and tough pockets of resistance that are incredibly difficult to identify and flush out.

The Off Guardian article presents a timely warning concerning some seemingly conciliatory and appeasing communications the System has transmitted recently. It very correctly and astutely warns us to be wary of all communications in which the System appears to be reassessing its aims, re-examining its actions, re-evaluating its data, and reviewing its strategies - especially against the backdrop of an apparent rise in resistance and push back.

After all, the System's overall goal is to include you within its anti-God and anti-Creation machinations, and one of the best ways it can do so is by presenting itself as capable of self-correction and, ultimately, redemption.

Like a violent husband apologetically presenting a box of chocolates and a flower bouquet to his battered wife, the System would very much like to convince those it has abused that it has realized its errors, learned from its mistakes, and deserves another chance to make it all better. All it requires to do so is forgiveness and trust. And like the hapless wife, many appear all too happy to give the System an infinite amount of second chances.    

So, after presenting such excellent and accurate insights about what "learning to live with the birdemic" really means, what does the writer of the Off Guardian article recommend people do to avoid falling into the trap?

Keep resisting and keep fighting.

That's all well and good, but the resisting and fighting must stem from spiritual motivations. Moreover, these spiritual motivations must extend beyond the negative action of resisting and fighting and must include a positive motivation that transcends the mostly negative action of resisting and the fighting. 

Why? 

If the "against movement" of fighting and resistance is not supported by a positive "for movement" of strong spiritual motivation, it will work to the System's advantage by becoming a lesser evil rather than a Good.

And this is where next level discernment comes in. Next level discernment involves the continued application of spiritual discernment from a cosmic perspective.

This does not involve "learning to live" with evil.

Nor does it involve non-spiritual resistance to evil.  

It involves learning to live for Good. Now and for eternity. 

This is not easy to achieve. And in this mortal world, it is also difficult to maintain, but it is absolutely vital going forward.

I completely agree with this intuitively. Ever since they pulled back it's made me really nervous. I was much more comfortable when they tried to hold the lid down tightly. At least then I knew what was going on and that they had their hands full so they couldn't turn on anymore burners. Now I'm waiting to see what horror they are cooking up for us in this interregnum.

Great post. We don't actually need to "learn to live with the virus," we need to end all the restrictions immediately - as in today. But since March 2020, that is the one option that is *always* off the table; it is simply ruled out, and the "lockdown skeptics" are generally too befuddled to even ask for it. Without a positive spiritual motivation, it's too easy to adopt the enemy's language and framing of the issues.

While forgiveness is an essential part of being a Christian, it's based on actual repentance, or admission of wrongdoing. Ignoring the past and simply claiming "We did the best we could" doesn't cut it. That's simply dodging responsibility.

The telling thing about all of this is the fact that there has been absolutely no repentance whatsoever from any of the ruling class. No admission of wrongdoing, asking for forgiveness, nada. Without genuine repentance, nothing will truly change. Even if things do go "back to normal", it's only a matter of time before another catalyst brings the closed world again. They're already discussing climate lockdowns.


This is similar to Dives being in Hades w/ Lazarus. Dives feared his brothers coming to the same state he was in, but he could not see that it was his own refusal to repent of his past follies that led him to that state. The gulf can only be bridged by letting go of one's sin, not making excuses or trying to justify it.

Unfortunately their plan is working. I can't tell you how many people there are out there who now wear masks as an unconscious habit, with no coercion necessary. Had I saved the mask trash I find in parking lots from the beginning, by now I would have a ball the size of my front porch to roll around.
They are not fully conscious. It is in the water, the food, the media, the juice. I remember the line from "None Dare Call It Treason" by John Stormer. Paraphrased, it went something like this: They take two steps forward and one step back. This is how they accomplish their goals. Imagine a hammer. From your perspective it is swinging back and that is all to the good. But the back swing is only in order to gather the momentum for the next strike. That is where we are at. And the majority are oblivious. I mean they make the characters from Mike Judge's "Idiocracy" look like fascinating conversation partners by comparison. Our positive goal is to live for the good, I could not agree more. If I have a prayer on my lips at the end of the night, it is for God to help me to be a better man tomorrow than I was today.
Doing what is right has never been popular and never will be. Social media has only pigeonholed this course of action further. Accolades from man must never be our objective, but truth and goodness before God. This will get a whole lot worse before it gets any better, but luckily for us this is not the highest plane for immortal spirits. In point of fact it is among the lowest. We have to work to move up the ranks, and we have to bleed. You guessed, it's all for the best.
